The World - News from March 12, 1986

Dominic (Mad Dog) McGlinchey, once the most wanted guerrilla in both the Irish Republic and Ulster, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting at police who arrested him on St. Patrick’s Day, 1984. McGlinchey, 32, one-time leader of the Marxist Irish National Liberation Army, had previously received a life sentence in a murder case. That conviction was overturned on appeal last October.
